@ceruds I'm glad it is useful! You can ask me anything if you have questions about something.

@Inginsub @wildgoose yes, you will keep using search even if you are experienced. On blender 2.8 it got re-mapped to F3 (which is the default search hotkey on a lot of programs too)

@cheru @wildgoose Cheers! you can hit me up with any question you have while you are learning to use it, i'll be glad to help.

@thendrix I think the only things that 3.0 has going on for it are geometry nodes and Cycles X

Cycles X is an obvious improvement for rendering speeds, and Geometry nodes are "nice" but nothing i deem indispensable or essential to model so why wait?

@wildgoose @hideki Since the interface upgrade, it's now possible to do most (if not all) of this stuff through menus. But if you are modeling, you need to memorize a few shortcuts because otherwise it's going to be very tedious.

Mostly viewport shortcuts, rotate, translate and scale, loopcuts and slices, knife, TAB (to switch between object and edit mode), C for selections, bevel, extrude, inset, dissolve, delete... you know, the basic stuff.

@wildgoose yeah no kidding, it took me so much time to really learn even the most basic hotkeys, and Blenderguru was throwing hotkeys at you like pancakes... almost for anything there's a hotkey for it.

And yeah, you can do everyting too by pressing on menus and such but it much much faster using the hotkeys. I guess you eventually get used to them by using them over and over again you don't even notice you have memorized them.

The other problem them came when i was all the time trying to use blender hotkeys in any other program, particulary on Inkscape that i use a lot too.

@hideki My biggest challenge has been memorizing hotkeys for everything, but Blender is really hotkey-centric so you gotta do it.

I wrote a small guide/roadmap for absolute beginners where i give you pointers of where to find good resources and information about self-learning how to use the 3D modeling software Blender and the things that worked for me during my very early beginner time.

When i started doing Blender i had seriously no idea of where to start and where to go next so i really hope it is useful to you in case you are curious about learning Blender but you have absolute ZERO experience or knowledge about it.

I really really do not like models and cosplayers doing the ahegao face, it looks cringey as hell
